Common questions

Is Seth Abramson left or right?
Seth Abramson is a liberal, staunchly anti-Trump writer and attorney whose work is dedicated to what he calls "curatorial journalism" documenting the alleged crimes of Donald Trump and his associates. A former criminal defense attorney and University of New Hampshire professor, he became famous for exhaustive Twitter megathreads during the Trump-Russia investigation and wrote a bestselling nonfiction trilogy on Trump's scandals ("Proof of Collusion," 2018; "Proof of Conspiracy," 2019; "Proof of Corruption," 2020), while appearing as a legal analyst on CNN and the BBC. Since 2021 his main platform has been his Substack, Proof, where recent serialized works include "Proof of Destruction" (2025), on Elon Musk's role in the second Trump administration, and "Proof of Devilry" (2025), on the Trump-Epstein scandal. His positioning is that of a prosecutorial anti-Trump partisan of the Democratic-aligned left rather than a policy ideologue: his output is organized around Trump accountability rather than a broader left program.
